Download or read book Thriving in an All Boys Club written by Cara Rabe-Hemp and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-12-22 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1845 women entered the career of policing, and ever since it’s been an evolving history for them. There are countless stories of women shaping this career, adding particular gifts and abilities to the profession. There are, also, countless stories of their struggles to fit in and survive in this “all-boys club.” Thriving in an All Boys Club: Female Police and Their Fight for Equality examines one of the most debated issues surrounding female police officers – their ability to find acceptance in the male subculture. Through the stories of women who joined policing in the 1980s, 1990s and 2000s, readers learn that women’s acceptance in policing is complex and officer’s experiences are wide-ranging. Stories of resistance and harassment by colleagues, the glass ceiling in promotion, and gender specific obstacles related to pregnancy and childcare are common. Their stories show a strong sense of determination and perseverance to perform the duties of police officer. The potential for enduring change in the field of policing is growing as women continue to make strides in achieving high ranks, breaking down assignments barriers, and ensuring just opportunities for future generations of female police officers. Despite the struggles that women face to survive in the “all-boys club” of policing, women not only survive, most thrive in this almost exclusively male occupation.

Book excerpt: Closing the Gap On Police Reform What if you could change your organizational culture to reduce or eliminate the use of excessive force, improve morale, and generate loyalty, service, and outstanding performance - all while creating greater community support of your department? You can. Former Police Chief Ramon Batista and Executive Coach Mark D Ziska have a proven 5-step solution that works to change the culture, performance, and character of any size department, agency, or small or large business. Using the proven process of a strategic plan with a well-defined launch strategy Batista and Ziska have shown that "retraining" the police isn't as powerful as changing the culture, hiring for character, and following a well-defined plan that recognizes, celebrates, and rewards character, values, and performance. They also explain why well-defined performance standards, organizational values that are lived, not parroted, and hiring men and women who show a "heart of service," for their community is critical to every police department, law enforcement agency, or large or small business. Ramon Batista holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Public Safety and Homeland Security and a Master of Science degree in Leadership from Grand Canyon University. The former Police Chief for Mesa, AZ PD, has participated in the Police Executive Leadership Institute, PERF; Senior Management Institute for PoliceFederal Bureau of Investigation National Academy and many other organizations.
